Maximum Dream For Evil Knievel is a song by The Flaming Lips and the third song on their second release, Oh My Gawd. Opening up with Coyne shouting the vocals, I must say that right from the start, I think the Flaming Lips introduce far too dissonant of a …

Black Crow Blues is a song by Bob Dylan which appears on Another Side Of Bob Dylan. Unlike a lot of Dylan’s earlier works, this track isn’t driven primarily by an acoustic guitar and Dylan’s voice, it’s driven by a piano and Dylan’s voice. Although this may not seem …

There is just something about country music and the way it tells a story that does not compare with any other type of music. One of my favorite music artist is Randy Travis. His song “Deeper Than the Holler” is an example of a great country love ballad. It …

Criminal is a song by Eminem which is the finishing track for his record The Marshal Mathers LP. The song opens up with a spoken word section from Eminem which is nothing impressive in itself, but I will say is a clever segue and fluid transition into the bulk …

I have heard this song many times but I am unaware of the real meaning of the song. I used to make fun of it because there is a song titled Tomorrow and now this is Yesterday. Yesterday is a song coming from the legendary The Beatles. Until now, …

I watched Don’t Cha by The Pussycat Dolls on Ellen Show before and I must say that I was totally bemused and impressed. I think the lead singer, Nicole sang like a karaoke version of something. She can really stretch her vocal chords and it was so fun …

I have to admit that I have absolutely no idea what this song is really about. When I read the lyrics, I think about death. The blue moon reference, and “take me up in your arms” line makes me think that the lead singer is embracing …

Despite the fact that her genre is kinda local to the US …

Escape, one of the later tracks on Ride The Lightning, is a track that I’ll admit sounds forced and written for the radio in my opinion. Supposedly the story is that the record company wanted Metallica to write a track like Escape, due to …
